Lu Anning had no recollection of her biological parents, let alone whether they had left her anything. Her earliest memory was of the serious illness she suffered in the orphanage. The director told her that she had a high fever that wouldn't go away for several days, and she barely managed to survive. But within six months, she was taken in by the Lu family and became their daughter.

She vaguely remembered that when she was taken away, the other children looked at her with envy. Little did they know that the life of a wealthy family was not as comfortable as they imagined.

As for her memories before she got sick, she really didn't remember any of them.

Lu Anning did not force himself to think about the past. Facing the future was the most important thing.

The next day, Lu Anning woke up to news reports all over the place, all about the Pei and Lu families canceling their engagement. They'd previously been planning a grand wedding, but now it was canceled without a trace. Many people commented, "Thank you, Lu's daughter, for letting the Second Young Master Pei go."

When they got engaged, everyone was congratulating them, but now many people have come out to say that Lu Yunxi is uneducated and not particularly good-looking, and is not worthy of Pei Chengyi's talent.

Lu Anning smiled faintly and didn't care about it.

After breakfast, she packed herself up and prepared to go to the Lu family. It was time to find out about her life experience.

As soon as she got out of the car, Lu Anning recognized the car parked in the yard as the one Pei Wenbin usually used for travel. She had come at an unfortunate moment, actually running into Pei Wenbin and his family.

There must have been a quarrel in the house!

When the servant saw it was her, he hurried forward to open the door and said, "Miss An Ning, you're finally back. Something happened at home. Please go and see. The Pei family is trying to cancel the engagement and they're having a huge fight."

Lu Anning nodded slightly and was led into the house by the servant. She swore that she had not come here on purpose to watch the fun, it was just a coincidence.

As soon as she stepped into the entrance hall, she heard angry curses coming from the main hall. Shen Yizi was arrogant and was counting Lu Yunxi's actions in detail.

"In order to marry my son, Miss Lu first deceived us by faking a pregnancy. After being exposed, she promised to behave herself in the future. What happened? This time, she was even more outrageous. She actually conspired with others to murder someone and almost killed Lu Anning. How could our Pei family dare to accept a girl like this! Madam Lu, you really have a good daughter."

"Mother-in-law, please don't say such harsh words. Yun Xi was just confused for a moment. Ultimately, she's insecure and cares too much about Cheng Yi. Isn't it too hasty to cancel such a good marriage? The two children have a good relationship, why should we force them to break up?"

Lu Zhenghao also quickly chimed in: "My dear relatives, they're already talking about marriage, so why should we separate them now? Isn't it okay? I can't say anything about others, but if it's Lu Anning, you can rest assured. She is also my daughter, it's just that there are some conflicts between the sisters. I will educate them both properly and will never let such a thing happen again."

"No need! I'm afraid that once I get married, if I make her unhappy one day, she'll sell me out and throw me into the sea. I don't have the ability to escape. The Pei family will never allow such a vicious woman to get married. Please return the betrothal gift. From now on, we're even."

Shen Yizi spoke directly, and Lu Zhenghao and his wife's faces suddenly turned the color of pig liver.

"My dear relatives, look..."

Pei Wenbin waved his hand. "I can't bear the title 'in-laws.' The Pei family has already publicly canceled the engagement. This was also the old man's intention. These two children are not meant to be together. As elders, we shouldn't force it. If we continue to talk, it will cause a quarrel and nobody will look good."

Lu Zhenghao cares most about his reputation. After hearing what the Pei family said, he doesn't want to beg others for mercy anymore.

Du Man wanted to persuade him, but was stopped by Lu Zhenghao: "Since the Pei family has made the decision, we won't force it. Wife, don't let others think that no one wants our daughter. You want a betrothal gift, right? Wait."

Lu Zhenghao suddenly became tough and got up and went upstairs to get something. Du Man was so anxious that her eyes turned red, but she had no idea what to do.

Just when I was at a loss, I looked up and saw Lu An Ning standing at the entrance, and I immediately saw hope.

"An Ning, you've arrived at the right time. Come in."

Du Man was more enthusiastic than usual, as if the previous conflict had never happened. She pulled Lu An Ning to sit in the main hall with familiarity.

"Your sister is in trouble. We are all family. You must find a way to help your sister this time."

Lu Anning took the tea handed to him by Duman with both hands, looked at Pei Wenbin and his wife, and nodded slightly.

"Second brother, second sister-in-law! I didn't expect you to be here too."

The two sides nodded to each other as a greeting.

Seeing Du Man asking Lu An Ning for help, Pei Wenbin reminded her first: "An Ning, I remember that you don't seem to like meddling in other people's business."

Lu Anning understood and smiled slightly: "I never meddle in other people's business. I came at an inopportune time today. I'm not in a hurry. I'll talk to you after you finish your business. I'll just sit here and drink tea. I don't know anything."

Pei Wenbin nodded with satisfaction. After all, this matter was caused by her. Pei Wenbin also felt that Lu Anning would not be so confused.

Seeing Lu An Ning holding the tea and retreating to the edge, Du Man suddenly became anxious: "An Ning, this matter started because of you. You are the key, you can't stay out of it. As long as you say a word, you can save your sister's marriage. This is not a difficult thing for you. It's not easy for her to live away from home for more than ten years..."

Lu An Ning slammed the teacup onto the table, his face falling. "She's had a hard time. What does it have to do with me? Madam Lu, you think too highly of me. I don't have the power to influence Young Master Pei's marriage."

"Lu Anning, you really have to talk like that, right? Yun Xi is still your sister after all!"

"Firstly, we are not related by blood. Secondly, I have severed ties with the Lu family. I cannot bear the title of 'sister'."

"you……"

"Don't ask her." A stern voice suddenly came from the stairs: "Don't ask her for help with our daughter's affairs."

Lu Zhenghao strode over with the box in his hand, his eyes filled with coldness: "Cancel the engagement. Yun Xi will have better options. There's nothing to worry about. What are you afraid of?"
